The 2021-2022 Golf Tournament was discussed. The Blackberry Park area requested has been reserved without the necessity of upfront payment. The planning stages are still considering the possibilities of City-wide picnic only or Golf and Picnic. It was mentioned that Blackberry Golf is a family oriented course that children may be able to play.
The Via Garden “massive harvest” needs continue. It was stated the summer crop is producing approximately 50 bags per harvest day. The bags now contain a VIA/DeAnza Lions card inscribed with “Local, Fresh and Delicious.” An inspiration of Lions Ron and Joan. Currently work is progressing on bird netting and providing shade for workers. It is anticipated by Lion Joan that a Courier editor may be interested in visiting the site. Please contact Lion Joan if you are available at any time.
